Truly, it's hard to fit in everything I would like to do - either trying something new or doing the things I know I enjoy. Make sure you bring a calendar with a lot of room for writing down activities.

I have more time to knit, quilt, read, golf, garden, try pickleball, water volleyball, yoga, and biking on Sundays (no time during the week).

Ohioboy has more time for music performance groups, road biking, and water volleyball.

But don't dismiss the pleasures of lingering over coffee and the newspaper on the lanai many mornings (we actually have to be sure to leave 2-3 mornings open to enjoy this). It is so nice not to have to watch the clock and jump into the car for a chilly morning commute thru rain, snow, etc. Or not spending a nice weather day in a high-paced office job, or whatever it is you might have done in your previous life.
